Kodiak- Here is your big chance. Circulate a petition to recall the twp board because they are picking on you. Form a committee to rewrite the local ordinances to allow dumpsters, junk cars, and large trucks in driveways. Don’t let the “man” get your dirt ass up out of the gutter!

considering that there are plenty more people breaking more major laws then me i think that question is irrelevant. why don't you ask all the rapists, murderers, and thieves the same question? IMO they are the ones who we should be worried more about, not someone who has done non of those things, but simply is an automotive enthusiast who likes to tinker with shit as a hobby.

don't like that? fine then i'll sell drugs, be a pimp, murderer or thief. society seems to treat them in a more favorable fashion most times getting out of punishment with a slap on the wrist and a small fine.

if i had 20 acres i'd have 2 huge ass barns built to store all my stuff neatly inside. if i was allowed to build a bigger garage at my current house you can be damn sure i would have by now, but there is a stupid ordinance against that too.

I'm calling bullshit on this.... Not a Covenant trucker's pay, if I had to guess, .26 - .30 per mile, and seeing how you are taking a job with lesser pay, even more BS.

covenant pays .14 a mile for team .25 for solo. my checks only average 300 a week. the job im taking promises no less then 800 a week net take home pay and being a 9-5 im home everynight and weekend. i really don't need to address this concern any further

no. i wish there was only because i'd find a way to stop the guy at the end of the street from driving his 10 ton dump truck and tri-axle trailer with his construction equipment up and down the street twice a day. Or i wish i could get B.A.M's auto shop to get a new driveway so there wouldn't be so much traffic on a dead end street

I agree completely. Someone could snap photos in a bright yellow jacket (with bacon pockets), post them here and he still wouldn't be able to pick him out of a lineup.

thats not how it works, so nice try...anybody and I mean anybody can sit in front of your house, photographic it, as well as you and post the pics if they want....there are no laws on the books that stops someone from taking pics of you and your property. That type of activity it not considered stalking and that is not what the stalking laws are used for

it is only common decency that prevented me from posting not only his picture, his facebook, the address, and the link to the publicly available GIS map, along with lat+long for a bing-maps view of the house that he lives in, but neither he or his dad have current title to... yes, it's that easy to find if one knows how/where to look.

if that google satellite image is at all accurate currently or at anytime during your ownership, the city/ neighbors have every right to be complaining. Damn man, I thought everyone was just screwing with you about being dirty before looking at that.

unless he is buying it on an unrecorded land contract, he doesn't own it. I didn't take note of the specific owner's name when I was sifting through the PRD database, but it was not the same last name that "James" has, nor did it appear to be a relation - but with divorces, and all sorts of other complicated family matters these days it's hard to say for certain without tapping into other, more restricted access databases.

not something I was going to do during lunch over something so trivial.

As for the tractor park it at a truck stop and have your wife/other pick you up (like most respectable drivers do). Yes your talking like a hour in your case. But it is your fault for your bad planning.

Tell your employer you need to get back to Michigan to get this settled. They are obligated to let you do so. Don't be put OOS because of this bs.

Your making drivers look bad with your "screw you all I don't wanna" approach. Just fix it and move on.

Using this logic, I bet you tell the traffic officer he should be out catching the 'real' criminals.....

Unfortunately it looks like thats illegal too. I'm glad i dont live somewhere that i cant have a project in my own garage. Thats gay as hell! And kodiak clean up your yard!

I didn't know so many people here thought they were entitled to a pleasurable (by their definition) view as they drive by others property.

Seriously, I would much rather drive by a house with a Peterbilt and a dumpster than a house with a couple of prius's accompanied by some faggy ass "sculpture" (milk jugs stapled together to look like an elephant or something.).

I don't believe I am entitled to ask anyone to park a Dodge Ram at the end of their driveway, or park their Kia's at the park & ride and walk home, but it sure would make me feel better about the world. Why would anyone feel so entitled to demand that I change my oil inside my garage with the door shut instead of in my driveway?

If you really believe that you are entitled to my property, then you should buy it from me. Aren't my tax dollars enough for you?

ITs more a question of they are entitled to neighbors who meet the requirements that everyone signed up for when they moved in. NOthing more or less.

I know at my previous house, the neighbor ran a hauling/site cleanup business out of his back yard. Gets REAL old listing to MDT/HDT trucks up and down the street all the time.
